Cis- And Trans-Resveratrol Have Opposite Effects On Histone Serine-Adp-Ribosylation And Tyrosine Induced Neurodegeneration, Megha Jhanji, Chintada Nageswara Rao, Jacob C. Massey, Marion C. Hope Iii, Xueyan Zhou, C. Dirk Keene, Tao Ma, Michael D. Wyatt, Jason A. Stewart, Sajish Mathew

Faculty Publications

Serum tyrosine levels increase during aging, neurocognitive, metabolic, and cardiovascular disorders. However, calorie restriction (CR) and sleep lower serum tyrosine levels. We previously showed that tyrosine inhibits tyrosyl-tRNA synthetase (TyrRS)-mediated activation of poly-ADP-ribose polymerase 1 (PARP1). Here, we show that histone serine-ADP-ribosylation is decreased in Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) brains, and increased tyrosine levels deplete TyrRS and cause neuronal DNA damage. However, dopamine and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) increase TyrRS and histone serine-ADP-ribosylation. Furthermore, cis-resveratrol (cis-RSV) that binds to TyrRS mimicking a ‘tyrosine-free’ conformation increases TyrRS, facilitates histone serine-ADP-ribosylation-dependent DNA repair, and provides neuroprotection in a TyrRS-dependent manner. …

Pharmacy Presentations, Posters, and Grand Rounds

Introduction: Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD) is a common atherosclerotic cardiovascular (CV) disease that increases the risk for fatal and non-fatal CV events. Guidelines for the treatment of PAD recommend that in addition to necessary revascularization, general CV prevention with optimal medical therapy is of utmost importance and management is recommended to be multidisciplinary. While the prevalence of PAD in various practices is high, physician awareness of the PAD diagnosis is relatively low and the pharmacological component of preventative CV care is often underutilized resulting in patients receiving less intensive treatment. With new pharmacological agents, including advances in antithrombotic therapy, contributing …

Design Of Topical Moxifloxacin Mucoadhesive Nanoemulsion For The Management Of Ocular Bacterial Infections, Ahmed Adel Ali Youssef, Ruchi Thakkar, Samir Senapati, Poorva H. Joshi

Faculty and Student Publications

Ocular bacterial infections can lead to serious visual disability without proper treatment. Moxifloxacin (MOX) has been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration as a monotherapy for ocular bacterial infections and is available commercially as an ophthalmic solution (0.5% w/v). However, precorneal retention, drainage, and low bioavailability remain the foremost challenges associated with current commercial eyedrops. With this study, we aimed to design a MOX-loaded nanoemulsion (NE; MOX-NE) with mucoadhesive agents (MOX-NEM) to sustain MOX release, as well as to overcome the potential drawbacks of the current commercial ophthalmic formulation. MOX-NE and MOX-NEM formulations were prepared by hot homogenization …

Host-Pathogen Interactions During Leptospirosis In Male C3h/Hej Mice, Advait Bhaskar Shetty

Theses and Dissertations (ETD)

Leptospirosis is a zoonotic disease transmitted from reservoir hosts like rodents to other animals and humans, who are incidental hosts. This infection is prevalent in the areas of Southeast Asia, Africa and South America. Inactivated Leptospira serovars vaccines are available in endemic areas but they have certain limitations such as serovar specificity and short-term protection. Antibiotics are effective treatment strategies useful at least during early stages of infection. Early diagnosis of Leptospirosis is difficult due to lack of accessible laboratory and point of care tests and due to clinical similarities with other diseases. Thus, it is important to understand host-Leptospira …

Targeting Myeloid Protein Kinase C Signaling To Overcome Immune Suppression And Improve Immunotherapy In Cancer, Mehdi Chaib

Theses and Dissertations (ETD)

Checkpoint immunotherapy unleashes T cell antitumor potential which has revolutionized cancer treatment showing unprecedented long-term responses. However, most patients do not respond to immunotherapy which often correlates with a dysfunctional or immunosuppressive myeloid compartment. Immunosuppressive myeloid cells comprise Myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) and tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) and can suppress T cells via production of immunosuppressive factors. Conversely, efficient cytotoxic T cell priming is dependent on the ability of antigen-presenting cells (APCs), mainly conventional dendritic cells (cDCs) and macrophages, to present or cross-present tumor antigens to T cells. Thus, targeting immunosuppressive myeloid cells while simultaneously enhancing APCs represents a promising strategy …

An Evaluation Of The Effects Of Sub-Chronic Ketamine Exposure On Rodent Memory As Assessed By The Odor Span Task In Female Rats, Angela Marie Thomas

Dissertations

Though numerous studies have been undertaken to explore the mechanisms of action of antidepressant medications, little is known about the origins of the disorders they treat. Recently, the therapeutic value of ketamine as a treatment for depression was recognized by the Food and Drug Administration. Historically, ketamine has been used in the laboratory setting to induce ‘schizophrenia-like’ symptomology in humans and animals to allow for further study of those symptoms in a controlled environment; a correlation between ketamine use and deficits in memory and cognitive function has been suggested. This study evaluated the impact of sub-chronic sub-anesthetic ketamine on performance …

Comparative Studies Between The Murine Immortalized Brain Endothelial Cell Line (Bend.3) And Induced Pluripotent Stem Cell-Derived Human Brain Endothelial Cells For Paracellular Transport, Jiahong Sun, Weijun Ou, Derick Han, Annlia Paganini-Hill, Mark J. Fisher, Rachita K. Sumbria

Pharmacy Faculty Articles and Research

Brain microvascular endothelial cells, forming the anatomical site of the blood-brain barrier (BBB), are widely used as in vitro complements to in vivo BBB studies. Among the immortalized cells used as in vitro BBB models, the murine-derived bEnd.3 cells offer culturing consistency and low cost and are well characterized for functional and transport assays, but result in low transendothelial electrical resistance (TEER). Human-induced pluripotent stem cells differentiated into brain microvascular endothelial cells (ihBMECs) have superior barrier properties, but the process of differentiation is time-consuming and can result in mixed endothelial-epithelial gene expression. Here we performed a side-by-side comparison of the …

A Single Local Delivery Of Paclitaxel And Nucleic Acids Via An Immunoactive Polymer Eliminates Tumors And Induces Antitumor Immunity, Fanfei Meng, Jianping Wang, Yanying He, Gregory M. Cresswell, Nadia A. Lanman, L. Tiffany Lyle, Timothy L. Ratliff, Yoon Yeo

Purdue University Libraries Open Access Publishing Fund

Despite recent advances in cancer therapy, hard-to-reach, unidentified tumors remain a significant clinical challenge. A promising approach is to treat locatable and accessible tumors locally and stimulate antitumor immunity in situ to exert systemic effects against distant tumors. We hypothesize that a carrier of immunotherapeutics can play a critical role in activating antitumor immunity as an immunoadjuvant and a local retainer of drug combinations. Here, we develop a polyethyleneimine-lithocholic acid conjugate (2E′), which forms a hydrophobic core and cationic surface to codeliver hydrophobic small molecules and anionic nucleic acids and activates antigen-presenting cells via the intrinsic activities of 2E′ components. …

Development Of Anti-Inflammatory Theranostic Nanocolloids Using Quality By Design Approaches, Michele Herneisey

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Nanocolloids are attractive delivery vehicles for drugs with poor aqueous solubility. Despite this, relatively few nanocolloid products exist on the market. Currently, there is a lack of standardization in the pre-clinical, academic setting regarding nanocolloid development and quality control testing. Adaptation of quality by design (QbD) methods used in the pharmaceutical industry to nanocolloid development is a desirable approach that can improve nanocolloid product and process understanding, resulting in an increased number of marketable products.

The central hypothesis of this work is that QbD approaches can be utilized to optimize theranostic (therapeutic and diagnostic) nanocolloid stability, drug loading, and imaging …

Full- Versus Sub-Regional Quantification Of Amyloid-Beta Load On Mouse Brain Sections, Yuu Ohno, Riley Murphy, Matthew Choi, Weijun Ou, Rachita K. Sumbria

Pharmacy Faculty Articles and Research

Extracellular accumulation of amyloid-beta (Aβ) plaques is one of the major pathological hallmarks of Alzheimer's disease (AD), and is the target of the only FDA-approved disease-modifying treatment for AD. Accordingly, the use of transgenic mouse models that overexpress the amyloid precursor protein and thereby accumulate cerebral Aβ plaques are widely used to model human AD in mice. Therefore, immunoassays, including enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and immunostaining, commonly measure the Aβ load in brain tissues derived from AD transgenic mice. Though the methods for Aβ detection and quantification have been well established and documented, the impact of the size of the …

Will Reducing Drug Prices Slow Innovation?, Gregory Vaughan, Fred Ledley

Mathematical Sciences Faculty Publications

The pharmaceutical industry has long argued that high drug prices reflect the high cost of innovation and that reducing drug prices would necessarily slow the pipeline of new drugs. These arguments have been bolstered by studies of large pharmaceutical companies showing statistical associations between the projected market size or revenue for pharmaceutical products and research & development (R&D) activity. Our analysis recognizes the increasingly important role of small biopharmaceuticals in drug development , companies that typically have little revenue and negative earnings, but are now responsible for more than 40% of new drug approvals. We examine the relationship between changes …

The Development Of A Brain Penetrating Erythropoietin For The Treatment Of Alzheimer’S Disease, Joshua Yang

KGI Theses and Dissertations

The development of a neurotherapeutic for the treatment of Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) is challenging due to limited endpoint efficacy. Erythropoietin (EPO), a hematopoietic neurotrophin, is a potential therapeutic for AD but has limited blood-brain barrier (BBB) permeability. A chimeric fusion protein of EPO bound to the transferrin receptor monoclonal antibody (cTfRMAb) can act as a molecular trojan horse for brain drug delivery, shuttling EPO into the brain via the transvascular route. However, cTfRMAbs have Fc-effector function adverse effects, and removal of the Fc N-linked glycosylation site by substituting Asn with Gly (cTfRMAb-N292G-EPO) reduces this Fc effector function. Hence, developing this …
